“We had a fantastic time at Susan and Owen`s beautiful summer home, right on the Northumberland Strait. We saw the most spectacular sunsets, swam in the ocean, walked the beach and enjoyed discovering fossils at nearby Arisaig provincial park. We also really enjoyed visiting the craft distillery just up the road -- sipping delicious cocktails overlooking the ocean. Wonderful hosts, would definitely recommend this tranquil location for a quiet retreat. Only 20 minutes from the Town of Antigonish, with some lovey local shops and a farmer`s market on Saturdays. ”

About our home
Our little piece of heaven is a 1400 square foot two bedroom home with a finished basement overlooking the Northumberland Strait. The paynoramic view allows gorgeous views of the sunrise and sunset in the water. A short path to the beach (200 ft. Beach front) allows you to bathe in the warmest waters North of the Carolinas as well as enjoy long private walks on the beach collecting shells, rocks and sea treasures. A sea view can be captured not only from the spacious deck that wraps around the west and North sides but from every room. Beach fires, swims, long walks, seaside cooking and sleeps lulled by waves ensure a restful and memorable stay.
All of the amenities are present. You are also within a 20 minute drive from the Town of Antigonish which provides cultural experiences and meets all the requirements of shopping. Within a few hours of the famous Cabot Trail and Cape Breton it is an ideal location to use as home base....however you won’t want to leave!
